I wonder if you are correct? what if they totally changed the way the battery was fitted to the frame with no need for a bash guard? Maybe like an updated version of the Trek rail perhaps?

I fear is that they will have a non (quickly) removable battery to stay competitive and have a larger battery.
This will shed between 0,5 and 1 kg.
The ride feel is totally different. You can't do the same stuff on a dirtbike than on a mountainbike. Yes, you can ride most mtb trails with a dirtbike but it will be a totally different experience.

Cuz dirt bikes can’t climb at all and they can’t turn.I ride a Kenevo, it takes a little time get used to the weight and long wheel base. A little upper body strength is a big help and you have to pay attention to your rear wheel path. Long heavy bikes like my Kenevo also climb like a goat on steep tech.

Won't happen. There is even no official compatibility between gen1 and gen2 Levos SL and these two have literally the same ebike platform ...

Exactly, there is zero incentive for them to do this. Backwards compatibility doesn’t sell bikes.

Apparently the first bikes with the brose will be available for customers in 2026.
First bikes will be presented in june 2025.
Didn't someone say the levo launch was postponed until may or easter 2025?

Based on that the new Levo either uses a different brands motor (Mahle?) or they are making a distinction between a Spesh branded Brose and the Brose branded Brose motors. No way Specialized wait until 2026 the get the new Levo out to customers. I expect it to be available for Summer 2025.Apparently the first bikes with the brose will be available for customers in 2026.

Well that totally falls into the release window of first the Levo with a new brand motor and later an LT model bike with the new Brose...Apparently the first bikes with the brose will be available for customers in 2026.

Using google translate it says "model year 2026", which as we all know is what a bike company would call their bikes if announced after January 1st 2025! (I'm exaggerating but you get my meaning).

This site is probably not super reliable and how its written it could mean model year 2026 or indeed 2026, especially considering specialized branded their brose motors. So I think everything is kinda possible.
Its a bit weird tho that they announced they will only announce the high end models, then subsequent delays happened. Maybe specialized/brose wanted to focus on reliability, got surprised by the avniox system and went back to the drawing board with updated software and might be testing that for long term reliability.

Absolutely this is killing me, I never want to get up close and personal again with something before it’s released. We’re going back in the new year to carry on working on the partnership and then the launch event, I have a plus one if you can make it

I bet it’s the latter, it would totally make sense for Spesh to get a jump start on the rest of the market given their relationship with Brose and the fact that they actually call it their own motor that’s whitelabeled. The delay would also perfectly explain the entire Levo delay, so if anything this confirms they are using the new Brose.

The gen 3 released with the Pro & S-works launched months ahead of the lower models.
I would be surprised if it didn't happen this way again.
You'll have to let me have the dates when we come over to see you.
sorry it's in french, please use a translator. it seems to say that the new brose will only be available for the 2026 models....or a certain link surely.

Ha funny! But - in all seriousness, I thought that was true for the Specialized Enduro in New Year's 2024. And... I guess not.
It did say on embn yesterday there will be news very soon

VERY VERY Soon
New motor, great improvement in battery capacity and a surprise for the controller , looks like a Levo SL only slightly beefier and a different way to mount the battery. I think by the end of January all the speculation will be over. However I think only top S works models available at launch in two different colours.
OMG
It’s the collaboration you mentioned that interests me can’t wait to hear more.
Surely not the way to go given the way the bike industry is going lately? Unless they still have a lot of Gen 3 stock to get through.
do you mind me asking what has changed meaning you can now reveal a bit more information?
